CONSTITUTION 



CONSTITUTION 

of 

The Colonial Dames 

of the 

State of New York 

Which is the Constitution of the National Society. 

PREAMBLE. 

Whereas, History shows that the remembrance of a nation's 
glory in the past stimulates to national greatness in the future, 
and that successive generations are awakened to truer patriotism 
and roused to nobler endeavor by the contemplation of the heroic 
deeds of their forefathers ; therefore, the Society of the Colonial 
Dames of America has been formed, that the descendants of 
those men who in the Colonial period, by their rectitude, cour- 
age and self-denial, prepared the way for success in that struggle 
which gained for their country its liberty and constitution, may 
associate themselves together to do honor to the virtues of their 
forefathers, and to encourage in all who come under their influ- 
ence, true patriotism, built on a knowledge of the self-sacrifice 
and heroism of those men of the Colonies who laid the founda- 
tions of this great nation. 

ARTICLE L 

This Society shall be known by the name, style, and title of 
The National Society of the Colonial Dames of America, and 
shall be composed of State Societies, of which there shall be one 

13 



in each of the thirteen original States, and one in the District 
of Columbia. There may be an Associate Society in any of the 
non-Colonial States by and through the consent of the National 
Society. 

ARTICLE 11. 

The objects of this Society shall be to collect and preserve 
manuscripts, traditions, relics and mementoes of by-gone days ; to 
restore and preserve buildings connected with the early history 
of our country; to diffuse healthful and intelligent information 
concerning the past ; to create a popular interest in Colonial his- 
tory; to stimulate a spirit of true patriotism and a genuine love 
of country, and to impress upon the young the sacred obligation 
of honoring the memory of those heroic ancestors whose ability, 
valor, sufferings, and achievements are beyond all praise. 

ARTICLE III. 

The State Societies shall be composed entirely of women who 
are descended in their own right from some ancestor of worthy 
life who came to reside in an American colony prior to I750> 
which ancestor, or some one of his descendants, being a lineal 
ascendant of the applicant, shall have rendered efficient service to 
his country during the Colonial period, either in the founding of 
a commonwealth, or of an institution which has survived and 
developed into importance, or who shall have held an important 
position in a Colonial government, or who, by distinguished serv- 
ices, shall have contributed to the founding of this great and 
powerful nation. 

All services which constitute a claim for membership must 
have been rendered before July 5th, 1776, but this date shall be 
held to include all the signers of the Declaration of Independ- 
ence. 

ARTICLE IV. 

The regular meeting of the National Society of the Colonial 
Dames of America shall be held every two years, in Washington, 
D. C. Special meetings may be held upon the order of the Na- 
tional President or upon a request of a majority of the State 

14 



Societies. Such meetings shall consist of the National officers 
and a representation not exceeding five delegates from each Co- 
lonial State Society, and the District of Columbia. Each Society 
in the non-Colonial States may send one delegate to the Biennial 
Council, with the right to vote on all questions except changes 
in the Constitution. The vote of each of the fourteen Societies 
now forming the National Society of the Colonial Dames of 
America, however cast, shall count as five. The necessary ex- 
pense of such meeting shall be borne by the National Society, 
and it shall be empowered at its regular meeting to assess each 
State Society in order to provide requisite funds. At the regu- 
lar meeting of the National Society, a President, three Vice-Presi- 
dents, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Registrar, Treasurer and 
Historian shall be elected by ballot, a majority of the States 
present being necessary to a choice ; all officers to serve until the 
next regular meeting, or imtil their successors shall be duly 
chosen. 

The National Society shall have power at any meeting to 
admit a State Society thereto from the thirteen original States 
and from the District of Columbia, and also an Associate Society 
from any of the non-Colonial States ; a majority of the States 
admitted forming a quorum. 

ARTICLE V. 

The State Societies of the Colonial Dames of America shall 
meet annually on the day appointed by their several by-laws, and 
oftener if found expedient. 

Their affairs shall be conducted by a Board consisting of a 
President, two Vice-Presidents and twelve or more Managers, 
who shall be elected by ballot by the members of the said State 
Societies. 

The Presidents and Vice-Presidents shall be chosen annually ; 
the Managers shall serve for three years, and the term of one 
third shall expire annually. The Board shall fill its own vacan- 
cies, the member chosen to serve until the next annual election. 
At the first meeting of the Board after the annual election, they 
shall organize by choosing from their own members two Secre- 
taries, a Treasurer, a Registrar, and an Historian. All officers 
shall continue to hold office until their successors are elected. 

15 



The members of the State Societies of the Colonial Dames of 
America, at the date of the certificate of the incorporation of the 
State Society, shall be elected members of the corporation at 
the first meeting of the said Society, subsequent to the incorpora- 
tion ; and thereafter no person shall be a candidate for admission 
unless invited and proposed by one member and seconded by an- 
other member of the Society, to both of whom the candidate 
must be well known, and by whom she shall be recommended. 

The President shall, from time to time, appoint from the 
Board of Managers three persons who shall examine the claims 
of each candidate, and report in writing to the President. When 
such reports are unanimously favorable, the name of the candi- 
date shall be presented at any meeting of the Board of Managers 
next after the report of such nomination shall have been received 
by the President. The name of each candidate shall be voted 
upon separately, and, if any member of the Board of Managers 
so demands, by ballot. Two negative votes shall act as a rejec- 
tion of the candidate. 

Each member shall contribute, upon her admission to the 
Society, and annually thereafter, such sums as the by-laws of the 
respective State Societies may require; but any State Society 
may provide for the endowment of life memberships by the pay- 
ment of a proper sum for that purpose. 

The State Societies shall regulate all matters respecting their 
own affairs, consistent with the general good of the Society ; 
judge of the qualifications of their members, or of those proposed 
for membership, subject, however, to the provisions of this con- 
stitution ; and shall have the power to expel any member who, 
by conduct unbecoming a gentlewoman, may render herself un- 
worthy to continue in membership. 

The Registrar of each State Society shall transmit to the 
National Registrar a list of the members thereof, and from time 
to time, as the same shall be printed, the names and official des- 
ignations of those from whom such members derive their claim 
to membership ; and thereafter upon the admission of each State 
Society, the Registrar thereof shall transmit to the National 
Registrar information respecting such members similar to that 
herein required. 

Each State Society shall cause to be transmitted annually, to 
the other State Societies, a circular letter calling attention to 

i6 



whatever may be thought worthy of observation concerning the 
welfare of the Society, and giving information of the officers 
chosen for the year; and copies of these letters shall also be 
transmitted to the National Secretary, to be preserved among the 
records of the Society. 

Each State Society shall adopt its own seal. 

Each member, when admitted to the privileges of her State 
Society, is entitled to receive a certificate of membership, signed 
by the State President and State Secretary, and bearing the seal 
of the State Society. 

The form shall be : 

has been duly elected a member 

of the Society of the Colonial Dames of 

America, in right of her ancestor 

In testimony whereof, the names of the 

President and Secretary and the seal of the 

Society are hereby affixed. 

ARTICLE VI. 

The custodian of the insignia shall be the National Registrar, 
who shall issue the badge to the members of any State Society, 
upon an order from the Registrar of that State; and she shall 
keep a register of such issues wherein each badge issued may be 
identified by the number thereof, and each State Society shall 
have its own numbers. 

The badge shall consist of a round disc with a centre of light 
blue enamel, and the figure of a Colonial Dame in gold, modelled 
in relief on the same. Around the center of blue enamel shall 
be a circle of white enamel, with the title of the Society, "Na- 
tional Society of Colonial Dames of America," in gold letters, 
flush. Surmounting this shall be the modelled figure of an eagle, 
in gold, and diverging from the disc twenty rays in gold, ar- 
ranged in four groups of five each, the three centre rays in each 
group to be surmounted by stars of blue enamel; these, with a 
similar star placed immediately below the central disc, being em- 
blematic of the thirteen original States. 

On the reverse side of the badge shall be the motto, "Virtutes 
Majorum Filiae Conservant." The materials of the badge shall 
be 14-carat gold, and enamel, and it shall be worn suspended by a 

17 



silk ribbon of blue and yellow from a gold bar on which is the 
name of the State. 

This ribbon shall be one and one-half inches wide, the central 
section of blue being one inch, with a section one quarter of an 
inch wide on each side. 

The badge shall be worn by the members on all occasions 
when they assemble officially for any stated purpose or celebra- 
tion, and may be worn on any occasion of ceremony. It shall be 
carried conspicuously on the left breast, but members who are 
or have been National Officers may wear it suspended from the 
ribbon around the neck. 

The seal of the National Society shall be : Within a beaded 
annulet a title scroll bearing the inscription, "National Society of 
the Colonial Dames of America." 

Within the scroll a shield, surmounted of the crown, quarterly 
of four —

lets sinister, wavy, argent, over all a lion rampant, or, crowned 
gules, for Sweden. 

This seal is to be used on the certificate, for further authenti- 
cation, and with it the signatures of the National President and 
National Secretary. 

ARTICLE VII. 

The Constitution shall not be altered, added to or amended, 
save by the vote of thirteen out of the fourteen Societies now 
forming the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America ; 
due notice of one year of any proposed change, alteration or 
amendment, having been given to each of the fourteen Societies 
before the meeting of the Council at which action is to be taken 
on said change, alteration or amendment.

the stated initiation fee, and dues for the current year, notice of 
which shall be sent by the Treasurer. 



SECTION XIII. 

INITIATION FEE, DUES AND CONTRIBUTIONS. 

The initiation fee of every member shall be fifteen dollars. 

The Annual Dues for every member shall be five dollars, 
payable on or before the day fixed for the Annual Meeting of the 
Society. In event of the date of admission of a member falling 
within two months before such Annual Meeting, her dues paid at 
such time shall be held to cover the ensuing fiscal year, but this 
favor shall extend only to admission within the said two months. 

The payment of one hundred dollars shall thenceforth exempt 
the member so paying from the payment of Annual dues. 

There shall be for the use of the Society a permanent Fund, 
to be derived from contributions ; this fund shall be in the hands 
of a Finance Committee of three well-known bankers and one 
member of the Board, to be invested to the best advantage. The 
income only of this fund shall be expended. Any member who 

28 



may contribute four hundred dollars to this fund shall be exempt 
from the payment of Annual dues, and such exemption may ex- 
tend to her lineal successors in membership from the same pro- 
positus, such successor to be appointed by herself or in default 
of such action to be chosen by the Society. 



SECTION XIV. 

NON-COLONIAL MEMBERSHIP, 

The members of non-Colonial State Societies, who on ac- 
count of New York ancestry enter through this Society, are 
required to pay only an initiation fee of fifteen dollars, the 
yearly dues being fixed and collected by their own organiza- 
tions. This shall constitute them associate members of the 
Colonial Dames of the State of New York, and they shall there- 
after be connected with this Society only by the payment of the 
per capita tax to the National Treasury, which in accordance 
with the ruling of the National Council, must be paid through 
the Parent Society for each member of a non-Colonial State So- 
ciety by its Treasurer. No rule limiting this membership of this 
Society shall be held to apply to these associate members.

the payment of two dollars and a half, by application to the

mined by her decease.

at the next succeeding General Meeting of the Society, and at 
each Annual Meeting the names of those who have died during 
the year shall be entered in full on the Minutes of the meeting 
by the Recording Secretary. 



SECTION XVIII. 

EXPULSION AND SUSPENSION. 

The Board of Managers shall have the power to expel 
any enrolled member of this Society, provided that such 
member shall have received at least ten days' notice in writing 
of the charge preferred against her, and of the time and place 
of hearing, that she raay have an opportunity to be heard in her 
own favor. When the cause of expulsion shall not have in- 
volved moral unworthiness, the member expelled may be restored 
by the Society to membership, upon the unanimous vote of the 
Board of Managers and at any meeting of the Society. 

Should any member of the Society become two years in ar- 
rears in payment of her dues, the Board of Managers shall have 
power to drop her name from the roll, after she has failed to 
answer a notice to this effect. Upon her application to the 
Board of Managers for re-membership, and the payment of her 
indebtedness to the Society, the Board of Managers may restore 
her to membership at any time. 

An officer may for cause be suspended from the performance 
of her duties, by the Board of Managers, which proceeding must 
be reported to the Society and acted upon by it within thirty 
days, or the suspension shall cease. When an officer is thus re- 
moved by the Society, the Board of Managers shall fill the va- 
cancy for the unexpired term.

REGISTER OF ANCESTORS 



The Committee having in charge the editing of this 
register, has felt that a false impression is sometimes 
given of the usefulness of a man's work by confining its 
record within the lines laid down by the Society as 
eligible. It has therefore, in preparing the record of services 
of ancestors for publication, added a second paragraph, 
when deemed advisable, to that recording their eligible 
service, giving an account of their further work, which 
is in some cases the most important of their lives. 

In every record, the Committee has adopted the plan 
of putting the colonial service, through which each man 
is best known, at the head of the list, and of separating 
the civil and the military service. 

To insure correctness, the claims have in many cases 
been sent for verification to the societies of the colonies in 
which the service was rendered, and the Committee wishes 
to thank the officers and genealogists of such societies for 
their kind interest and help. 

Since the publication of the last register of members, 
the eligibility list of our own Societj', as well as those of 
several other State societies, have been altered and amended. 
This has caused several names on which members have 
entered, to become ineligible for future use. Such names 
on the list which follows this, are marked with a star. 

It is of course almost impossible in a work of this kind 
to avoid some inaccuracies, and if such are found, the Commit- 
tee would beg the clemency of the Society. Every effort has 
been made to avoid such faults, and it is with hope 
that it may be found entirely acceptable that the Com- 
mittee presents the register of names and ancestors of 
the Colonial Dames of the State of New York. 



Register of Ancestors. 

The names marked with a star are those of ancestors whose services are no longer eligible 
according to the present lists, but who have been accepted on the requirements of lists no 
longer in use.
